Everyone seems to be getting and always talking about the SS3 Pro fog but not the driving lights. Any experiences from people who use the driving lights? I'm thinking about buying a set now because of the BF deals.

The SS3 Pros are great driving lights, but if you're looking to supplement your low beam headlights, they're a poor choice. The reason they're a poor choice is actually the same reason they're such a great driving light - they're very bright and throw usable light way down the road. That means they'll bother oncoming drivers to no end.
If you want to supplement your low beams / be able to use them with your low beams and not bother oncoming drivers, I'd actually recommend the fog pattern. It's completely road legal and SAE J581 compliant. That said, when properly aimed, you can run them with your low beams. In fact, if you want to save some money, the Sport model actually has a tighter fog beam pattern than the Pro and is less expensive - but still more than bright enough.
